I know I have been missing in action since before Christmas but having the girls and Mr ASL home it was hard to get any time to myself. They respectively went back to school and work yesterday so having spent most of the day getting the house back into order I decided today was going to be for me.
So as I type this I'm still in my PJ's at 1.30pm, I have spent most of the morning figuring out my new sewing machine which was a Christmas present. I bought some cheap cotton last week so that I could practice as unfortunately I did not inherit my mum's gift of sewing. I have managed to complete my first cushion cover which will be going into Cailin's room once it is finished.
On that note, I know I promised "After" pics and will post them soon, I have collected most of the accessories but I just need to come up with something to cover up the ugly power panel. If anyone has suggestions please feel free to let me know. I was contemplating just putting up a big cork board but I'm not sure how it will look being that it's not centred to wall and very close to the window.
Maybe something like this one over at Made By Girl
Well I had better get my butt into gear as it's nearly 2pm and I have to get ready to pick the girls up from school.
Have a great day.
nikki, thanks so much for your lovely comment. I appreciate your thinking of me.
ReplyDeleteHey, PJ's at one in the afternoon is perfectly acceptable by me! when my son was younger, it was a real treat to do that. Love that covered corkboard - I need to try that, too.
Thanks again and love, donna
